chapter-169
“Well…” April tried hard to keep a straight face, finding Vania’s words amusing. That’s cute, Mrs.
Luke. Now, Hanson is a sleeping beauty to you. On the other hand, Hanson was desperate to know
what was on Vania’s mind upon hearing her question.
“Nope, I’m sure that he is not sleeping. If he was, he would have been awoken by Larry’s cries. Rest
assured, Mrs. Luke. Hanson is going to be fine.”
Vania nodded doubtfully, but when she recalled the way they treated her, she reminded April about
her identity to confirm her suspicion. “Is there any chance that you might have mistaken me for
someone else? I’m Vania, not Hanson’s wife, Mnie.” Worried that Hanson might not have made it
clear to April about her identity, Vania found it a little strange to be addressed as Mrs. Luke. She
was not Hanson’s wife, after all.
“There is no way I would mistake you for someone else. You were the one who was caught in an
ident earlier and hospitalized after that, weren’t you?” April was confident that he would not
mistake Vania for someone else.
Vania nodded in response. “Well, you’re right. That was me indeed.” She then recalled a man who
was looking at her strangely when he was patrolling the wardsst time, realizing April to be that
man in hindsight.
“I knew I was right. I’ve been hanging around with Hanson for so long and have not noticed anydy
who’s close to him besides you. As such, there is no way I’m wrong about that.”
Soon, Vania curiously asked, “Are you close friends with Hanson?” Judging from the way he
addresses Hanson, I’m sure they know each other.

“Of course. We’ve known each other since we were children.”
Childhood friends, huh? That sounds close enough to me. Has he not seen Mnie before? She is
the mother of Hanson’s children, so why does this guy still keep calling me Mrs. Luke?
“In that case, you should know that I’m not Mrs. Luke.” Vania corrected April.
However, April didn’t seem to care about that. “Well, Hanson doesn’t think that way, so you are Mrs.
Luke.”
Hanson doesn’t think that way? Since when? At that moment, Vania had no idea how else she
could exin the confusion, so she decided to give up the debate and told the man to do as she
said. “Fine, just stop calling me Mrs. Luke, alright? I’m not her.”
“Uh…” Just as April was about to say something, he suddenly heard Hanson’s coughing, which
interrupted his conversation with Vania. As soon as both of them heard that, Vania immediately got
closer to check on Hanson and asked, “Hanson? Can you hear me?”
Hanson weakly blinked, showing signs that he was about to ‘wake up’. Thus, Vania quickly called
out to April. “Come here, doctor. It looks like he is showing some response.”
Oh,e on! He’s been awake all the time,dy. Aprilined to himself deep down, but even
so, he was bound by his professionalism as a doctor to pretend to check on the patient with his
stethoscope. “You’re right, Mrs. Luke. It does look like he is waking up.”
Mrs. Luke? Not again! Fine, he won’t understand it either anyway. What matters now is that Hanson
comes around. Vania looked forward to what would unfold the next moment, but Hanson didn’t
seem to respond any further after that cough, and it seemed like a mere hallucination.
Not knowing what Hanson was up to, April was forced to bring up the subject he was talking with
Vania about. “Why don’t you try talking to him again, Mrs. Luke? Perhaps he’ll respond to that.”
Vania looked at Hanson in confusion, feeling helpless about the sequence of events that had
transpired that day. As such, she blurted out a silly question without thinking it through, asking,
“What do you want me to do? Read him a passage from the textbook?” After all, she had no idea
what she could say to Hanson at that moment.
Upon hearing thedy’s response, April was rendered speechless as he couldn’t rte to the way
Vania perceived the situation. After all, it was his first time hearing someone talking to a patient
about a passage from the textbook throughout his medical career.
